I wonder what's making these creators choose Image over Icon? I thought they were basically the same deal, that all the money goes to the creators and that the marketing is down to them, all Image/Icon do is print it.

Have Marvel changed the terms of Icon?

Or is it just because the Image brand-name has become so much bigger recently? Every Image #1 seems to be a much bigger deal. Kick-Ass 3 came out on Icon and nobody seemed to care.

The problem is neither is as good as Stan Lee, Jack Kirby or Steve Ditko...
